Ingredients
- 20 mg caffeine (optional)
- ½ tsp (2.5 ml) cocktail bitters
- ½ tsp (2.5 ml) powdered cinnamon
- ½ tsp (2.5 ml) powdered nutmeg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ in. wide strip of lemon peel cut around the fruit's circumference
- ½ in. wide strip of orange peel cut around the fruit's circumference
- 1 cinnamon stick
- ½ cup (120 ml) water
- 1 cup (240 ml) coconut sugar
- Carbonated water, as needed
Directions
- Boil all of the ingredients except for the vanilla extract and bitters in a pot until it becomes sticky.
- Strain out the solids.
- Add the vanilla extract and bitters.
- To make the finished soda, combine 1 volume of syrup with 5 volumes of carbonated water.
Notes
Use water from a carbonating machine or a brand of pure carbonated water such as Polar Original Sparkling Water, Great Value Seltzer Water, or Signature Select Seltzer Water. Do not use a brand of mineral water such as Perrier, San Pellegrino, or Mineragua because the added minerals will ruin the taste. Avoid flavored sparkling water such as La Croix or Spindrift because the preexisting fruit flavors will ruin the drink.
